Fragrance for an apartment in South Africa
Apartments in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban often pair an open-plan living area with closed bedrooms. Start with the room you live in most and add others later.

The short answer
For an apartment in South Africa, begin with the open living-dining room: Vaayu if it is large and connected, Pawan if it is compact. Then add a Pawan to each closed bedroom that should be scented. Most apartments need two or three machines at most.
Your plan
Step by step
- The living-dining room. Vaayu for a large open room, Pawan for a compact one.
- Bedrooms. A Pawan in each closed bedroom that wants fragrance.
- Placement. Keep machines out of a direct draught from an AC vent, heater or open window, and away from a balcony door that stays open.
- Start small. One machine first; add rooms once you know how strong you like it.

What changes in South Africa
Indoor-outdoor living
Many South African homes open onto a patio or garden, so fragrance is planned for the indoor rooms you can close.
Sectional title and rentals
Many apartments are sectional title or rented. Pawan plugs into a socket with nothing fixed to the walls.
Delivery and plugs
Orders to South Africa usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in South Africa are types C, M and N, so whether Pawan needs a plug adapter depends on your socket. Ask us before you order.

Questions
Before you choose
Is one Pawan enough for a small apartment?
For a studio or one main room of up to about 500 sq ft, often yes. Each bedroom kept behind a closed door needs its own.
Can I use it in a rented or sectional-title apartment?
Yes. Pawan plugs into a socket and nothing is fixed to the walls, so it leaves with you when you move.
Do you deliver to South Africa?
Yes. Orders to South Africa usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in South Africa are types C, M and N, so whether Pawan needs a plug adapter depends on your socket. Ask us before you order.
What should I send you for a recommendation?
A floor plan or rough sketch, the size of each room, ceiling height, which doors stay closed, where the sockets are, the hours the space is used and the scents you like. Photos help too.
